stained glass quilt

After finishing my second quilt (link) in January of 2024, I immediately chose my next quilt and went out to buy the fabric. I love color and my husband does stained glass, so I wanted to try a stained glass quilt. After lots of googling, I chose this quilt for inspiration. Without a pattern, I spent quite a bit of time calculating the proper measurements for each piece. I got all the colored fabric cut in February before my Dad passed away and the project was put aside. 

I picked the project back up the beginning of this year. It was my first time working with sashing, and boy was that a mind bender at first. Here's the project part way through...


And here's the finished quilt, measuring 52" x 68", just slightly smaller than my previous quilt. The image doesn't quite do the colors justice. They truly pop in person. I love it and am eager to figure out what my next project will be. 


Fabric, batting + thread = $124.23
Hours = 65 excluding shopping
